Q
What is the system’s principle?
A
Snell’s law (aka law of refraction)
4
Q
What is Snell’s law?
A
A formula to describe the relationship between angles of incidence and refraction when referring to light or other waves passing through a boundary between two different media.
5
Q
What does Snell’s law say about the ratio of the sines of incidence and refraction?
A
A constant that depends on the media.
